A visceral, sweeping epic of the California Gold Rush—a land where fortunes are made in the dirt and souls are lost in the shadows of the Barbary Coast. In Devilseed, master storyteller Frank Yerby transports readers to the raw, lawless frontier of 1850s San Francisco. The city is a boiling pot of greed and ambition, attracting the desperate and the daring from every corner of the globe. Amidst the mud-slicked streets and the shimmering promise of the hills, the story follows the fierce struggle for survival in a society being built on the fly, where the line between a hero and a villain is as thin as a gold vein. The narrative centers on the fiery and resilient Mireille, a woman who must navigate a world of brutal men and shifting alliances to secure her own destiny. In a city born of fire and greed, can Mireille forge her own future or fall victim to the devilseed?
